1984 West De Pere Phantom Regiment

Saturday, November 17, 1984 — This is a clip of the TV broadcast from WBAY-TV Channel 2 covering the first annual Green Bay City Centre Holiday Parade. Though the parade itself is much longer, this clip features over 6 minutes of live coverage of the West De Pere Phantom Regiment. The regiment consists of the Marching Band, Color Guard and the Pom & Dance Team.

If you know someone in this video, please leave a comment.

About the recording:
At the time of this parade, I was 22 years old and worked as a front desk clerk at the Holiday Inn City Centre. We, the employees of the Holiday Inn, built the "Fantasy Inn" float which won the Mayor's Award. Unfortunately, I was deer hunting on this day and was not able to ride the float that we built. So I recorded the TV broadcast on my VCR (this was pretty cool stuff back then). Dean Dupont, my roommate (and best man at my wedding), recently found the tape in a box. The sound isn't the best quality after 25 years.
